Surprised to sign on this eve. and see Dale's obit..I've been living out of town. Dale was my patient many times at Metro Health Center, where I worked as an R.N. A great man with always a smile to share, and never a bit of self pity. I would still see him often at the Dr.'s office...I know he was loved by many, and he will be truly missed. God Bless Dale and his family.

Dear Diane,

I am so sorry to see that Dale has passed away.

I am sending my sincere condolences across the miles because I cannot be there to say goodbye to him :(

Not sure if I remember you, if you stopped by or gave Dale rides home...sorry...memory going too :(

I was a "temp" at ADT back in 1998-1999 while I was in Erie for a short time.

He was such a sweet man, gentleman and a great "boss". He ran ADT so perfectly and taught me well.

Please find comfort that he is in a great place with the Lord.

God bless you and your family!
